Answer:

16 players can be brought to the tournament. The equation is written within my step-by-step explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable p = number of players

Set up an equation:

974.50 + 60.75p = 1946.50

Isolate variable p:

60.75p = 972

Divide:

p = 16

Check your work:

974.50 + 60.75(16) = 1946.50

974.50 + 972 = 1946.50

1946.50 = 1946.50
